About The Fund

India Alternatives Investment Advisors is a Mumbai-based private equity and venture capital firm that specializes in mid-market investments. They aim to back companies in India that demonstrate potential to become market leaders and category creators. Their investment focus spans over various industries, such as Software including Web, Marketplace, and SaaS, Information Technology and TMT, Hardware and Manufacturing, as well as Mobile. India Alternatives has a history of investing and exiting across two funds, with a strong emphasis on building a portfolio of companies that either hold the number one or number two position within their respective markets. Their investment strategy aligns with the philosophy 'If the chemistry works, the math will follow,' highlighting a commitment to fostering strong, synergistic partnerships with their portfolio companies for mutual success. The firm invests in transformational themes across different sectors and is backed by blue-chip institutional investors for both their funds. With their first fund having been completely exited, they have demonstrated a proven track record in achieving significant returns, boasting a Realized Portfolio Distribution to Paid-In (DPI) of approximately 4.5 times for Fund I. India Alternatives' rigorous investment process enables them to judiciously allocate a standardized investment amount of 12 million USD as both their minimum and maximum investment, which ensures a focused and strategic deployment of capital in select ventures. They actively participate in sectors where they have substantial expertise to add value beyond capital, working with businesses that have reputable standing and a scalable model in their markets.
